Horse Play Days at Fina Vista Farm
Who Can Play: Got a group of friends or family who want to spend a day having a variety of horseback adventures? Why not consider a Horsey PlayDay at Fina Vista Farm! We welcome the “big kids” (adults) to come for a day of learning, challenging, exploring and playing on horses. Not just any horse… the wonderfully smooth and unique Paso Fino Horse. Any rider level is welcome, from novice to advanced; we will adapt to you. Currently we have a weight limit of 220 lbs. You can also bring your own horse if you wish. What Happens: (day runs for 3+ hours, depending on group size/needs etc). You will begin your day by learning a bit about the horses and meeting your Paso Fino Horse for the day. We will then proceed to the ring for some introduction and instruction on how to ride the super smooth gait of the Paso Fino. You’ll get a chance to ride the gaits, try some fun games on horseback and start on obstacles or even jumping, depending on rider levels. Lunchtime is a chance for humans and horses to take a break and get in some socializing time. We can include, at additional cost, a delicious lunch featuring local specialty foods. After lunch we will proceed on horseback to the Obstacle Course in the farm’s woods. A chance to challenge yourself to get you and your horse through the various elements. Finish off the day with a relaxing trail ride in the beautiful rolling, Oak Hills.
What Should I Bring: Please come dressed to ride and for the weather. All the riding is outside, so if there is the possibility of rain or cold, come prepared. Wear long pants (if you don’t have riding pants, jeans or leggings are fine), boots with approx. 1” heel, and bring your riding helmet if you have one (we have some if you don’t). Bring your horse and their food if you are not using one of ours. You are free to bring your own lunch, snacks and drinks. Cost: Need a minimum of 3 riders to book(may be combined) and currently we have a max of 8 if using our horses or 12 if using your own or a combo. Starting at $89/person.
